Nice show hotboxes, I'm liking the smart pot. I just built myself a new ppk system and after a break in run I plan to incorporate some type of air/smart pot. When I inspect root balls I notice the spin out and would like to deal with it if I can. I'm still using the 3 1/2 gallons upper buckets. My first round I almost out grew them and now with less veg time the spin out isn't as bad but I'd still like to deal with it.

Hello everyone, was able to Jack a signal from my hospital bed. I guess the hospital has a block on their Wi-Fi for sites like icmag so I was able to get on from my phone. I found out last Tuesday I have stage 4 colon cancer and stage 3 liver cancer. But I should be out of here within a week. Like Tom said everything is going nicely so far and as soon as I'm able I'll get some photos up for you guys. Till then hang tight this show isn't over yet.

Shit hotboxes! Not the update I was hoping to see in here. Sorry to hear that man :comfort:

At least he's in good spirit and company :)

I'm in really good spirits today, I go under the knife at noon today. I'm hoping everything goes well and I can get out of here asap. Tom told me that the ladies are really packing on the weight so I can't wait to see them plus I am going to need good meds for my chemo and radiation therapy. Anyways I hope things go well today and I can get out of here by Friday or Saturday. Till then ladies and gents

Hey guys I'm finally out of the hospital after 19 days with a big ass incision and Shitting out of my stomach it's nice to be out. Spirits are high and so Am I next to all the drugs they sent me home with the Casey Jones is kicking ass. I was in there Monday but forgot my camera but promise to get pictures before they come down next week. Trichs were mostly cloudy with a few Amber not many though . The other 2 aren't doing very great they are healthy as can be very no where near the CJ . So thanks for all the well wishes and kind words guys I'm.definitely going to need all the support I can get from here on out.

I want to give a special thanks to Tomfoolery29 for keeping everything going smoothly while I was in the hospital you really showed me your ready to really start learning. Keep up the great job Tom well until I get dimmed pictures I'll see everyone soon.thanks for sticking around everyone.

Hello all, hope everyone is in good health. I know this thread just more or less stalled out for a bit and I am truly sorry, this cancer really threw a wrench into things being stuck in the hospital for nearly 3 weeks and not being able to keep a close eye on things, at least I had Tom looking out for me.

This first shot is of the Casey Jones. I believe that the second shot is of the Apple Jack. This plant has nice crystal production but I just couldn't get everything dialed in time for flower cause she never really stretched for me. The third shot is of the Casey Jones again then I tried to get a shot of the trichs but my camera is garbage. and Finally a shot of a little dryer box we had to make, because the Doctor had to be taken early there was a spot of bud rot on it starting to mold just in 1 spot not another hint of it anywhere so we just took the plant and cut out the section that was rotting. It was only the size of a quarter, this plant was a runt and never really grew to its potential it was almost culled a few times but in the end its free smoke. The end result was horrible for a PPK I have gotten more from cloth smart pots we only ended up with a lil under a quarter pound the other 2 did much better though. On the next page I will show more of the dryer and the chop.

Here we have the dryer box it worked out pretty well and all I had to buy was the container I had the rest of the equipment on hand. The only reason I built it was cause there was time left on the other plants so I couldn't just kill the lights in the big tent. but its all good cause we are going to need something like this for next season. We are just going to put a single plant in every 4-5 weeks on a perpetual cycle. IMHO I think 2 plants in my area at a time max. There isn't enough room for more also I will be vegging plants horizontally then flowered out vertically. The rest of the photos are of drying plants. The last shot is of the head bud on the CJ its massive and has I nice purple highlight to it. I will be going over there in about 3-4 days by then it should be time to start trimming them and getting it ready for a cure process. I have all the plants split so I can get a good measure of each and how much from each. I will have a better idea by then as well once its dryer. I will get some better shots when we start to trim until then thanks everyone for sticking around and have a great day, stay safe and healthy
